Theres no such thing as too much information on Selena Gomezsnew album,Rare.
So, which songs are about which pop star?
In third person, she describes the end of her relationship with Justin Bieber.
Basically, every lyric points to Justin Bieber.
Even if she cant fully associate herself with the progress (seriously,whythe third person?
), look at her now!
Shes doing it, day by day.
Lose You to Love Me
Selena Gomezsfirst single fromRarelaid everything on the table.
She mourns her relationship with Justin Bieber, but doesnt regret ending it all.
Lose You to Love Me is so packed with references to their love that it deservedits own investigation.
Vulnerable
Vulnerable sounds like a song by the Weeknd.
By the end of the song, Selena decides that the love is worth the risk.
Thats certainly not how she feels about Justin Bieber anymore.
Like, You were running through me like water / Now the feelings leaving me dry?
I know what an extended metaphor is!
Anyway, Selena has been open about the fact that she and the Weeknd ended things on good terms.
Kinda Crazy
Fans are torn over Kinda Crazy.
Is it the Weeknd, Justin Bieber … or a dark horse?
Because some fansbelieveits aCharlie Puthdiss track.
Puthwasnt exactly thrilledwith the way things ended.
It wasnt like I was the only person on her mind, he toldBillboardin 2018.
And I think I knew that going in what I was getting myself into.
Soon after that interview, a source toldPeoplethat Gomez never dated him.
She and the Weeknd dated while she was undergoing serious health issues related to lupus.
Those complications have names, and theyre Justin Bieber and Bella Hadid.
Can we keep it on a first name basis?
Then, she references her illness again.
Take me to different places could be because Selena traveled with him on tour until her surgery.
Fun is sad but hopeful about their relationship and a good indicator that theresno hard feelings there.
Gotta chop-chop all the extra weight, Ive been carrying for fourteen-hundred-sixty days, she sings.
Thats four years in human-speak.
So, yeah, more or less four years.
/ So I gotta get you out my head now / Ill just cut you off.
Professionally may point to the Instagram back-and-forth.
Both Selena and Justin feel like the other is using celebrity to get back at them.
